PETALING JAYA: Cracks in walls or floors, blocked drains, and tilting utility poles or fences – these are among the early warning signs of a landslide that people living near slopes need to watch out for, says the Mineral and Geoscience Department.

Its director-general Datuk Zamri Ramli said other warning signs are water seeping from slopes or pooling at the base of slopes, and visible cracks along their surface.
